The Gov. points out in 31440 that the prin- !

ciple of establishing soghools for the exolu-|

sive use of children of European race is well

established in H. Kong, and as he now sayS

that he fears the school will not be a success

if these seven children are admitted I think

we can only leave the matter to his discretion.

I would tel. to him accordingly, and ask by

The Governor of Hong Kong to the Secretary

of State for the Colonies.

(Received, Colonial Office, 1.53 p.m. 8th January, 1914.)

Your despatch of 19th September Confidential

application has been received for admission to Peak

School at end of January 1914 of seven children of

Eurasian family referred to in my despatch of 20th August last. Father is Ho Tung and the mother is Chinese. I fear that School will not be success- ful if admission is granted. Shall be glad if you

will telegraph your instructions.

MAY.
